The Denver Nuggets are set to be represented by guards Emmanuel Mudiay and Wilson Chandler, and Head Coach Mike Malone at the NBA Africa Game 2017, the league’s second game in Africa. The game will take place Saturday, Aug. 5 at the Ticketpro Dome in Johannesburg, South Africa.

NBA Africa Game 2017, which will take place following the 15th edition of Basketball without Borders (BWB) Africa, will once again feature a Team Africa vs. Team World format and will be played in support of UNICEF, the Nelson Mandela Foundation and SOS Children’s Villages South Africa (SOSCVSA).

Nuggets guard Emmanuel Mudiay (Democratic Republic of the Congo) will play with Team Africa, comprised of players born in Africa and second-generation African players. Mudiay is to be joined by team captains Luol Deng (Los Angeles Lakers; South Sudan) and Thabo Sefolosha (most recently with the Atlanta Hawks; Switzerland; parent from South Africa).

The sold-out NBA Africa Game 2015, the first NBA game on the continent, took place Aug. 1, 2015 at Ellis Park Arena in Johannesburg. There have been more than 70 current or former NBA players from Africa or with ties to the continent, including NBA Africa Ambassador Hakeem Olajuwon (Nigeria) and Dikembe Mutombo, both of whom played in NBA Africa Game 2015.
